Daichi picks up yoga when he gets older because it keeps him limber and helps alleviate the stress his job puts on his body. His husband sips coffee in the morning and watches... very respectfully.

Important thing my teacher told me: it's a myth that a cross twine is harmful to health. In fact, improper cross splits ruin our knees. If you turn your knees forward rather than upward, the pressure can severely damage the joints.

12 August 2023, Saturday 👀👀

After brooding for a very long time🥴 on the idea, today I finally started the yoga Sun Salutation🧘🧘. It was very exciting😄 as I was learning the different poses😌😌 and succeeded in doing🥳 so but now my shoulders🥲🥲 are paining. It was good that I tried only for two times the very first day otherwise it would have complicated my problem🙃. Now I feel as if I have been working for the whole long day😑😑. As always it is advised to start slow and gradually increase the limit. Tomorrow I am thinking of doing it three times😗😗. You know I have also started drinking coffee☕☕ again for 2 days consecutively, but today I will give it a break✌️.

Since I was bored till death🥱🥱 from the past 2 days, hence decided to do something constructive like doing 🧘🧘🧘meditation and affirmation before sleeping . Basically trying to inculcate some good habits and positive thinking (The Power of Subconscious Mind)☺️. Thought to finally give it a try. At least see if I succeed in doing it daily. Well I was also thinking🤔🤔 to enhance my writing skill a bit. I write amazingly when I am stressed😮‍💨 or I'm freaking out😖, basically when my adrenaline is high🤯. But in future I cannot depend on my adrenaline, instead this should be my skill, my hobby or whatever you say and a polished one. There are other plans which I am planning to work out sometime later let's see if it bore's fruit🙁. Hoping for my counselling to begins soon so that I would officially be a medical student👩🏻‍⚕️👩🏻‍⚕️👩🏻‍⚕️👩🏻‍⚕️ and step in the realms of the world. 🤗Bye for now. Will update you soon.👀

Yoga is one of the most popular forms of exercise that has a great impact on our physical and mental health.

To understand its impact, it is important to know the inner structure and functioning of the body.

As a yoga teacher or practitioner, you must be familiar with the limitations of each body type and its level of experience. Therefore teachers must learn about the basics of anatomy and physiology to understand what’s going on in the body and achieve the full benefits of yoga.

What is Yoga Anatomy?

Anatomy is a medical term and it deals with the study of basic structures of the body. Its teaching includes the study of bones, muscles, joints, and other internal organs of the body. All Yoga teachers need to understand the structure of the human body to increase the effectiveness of asanas and protect the body from injuries. With this anatomical awareness you will be prepared to deal with injuries in an effective, yet protected manner.

What is Yoga Physiology?

Yoga Physiology is the science that deals with the functioning of the body parts and their specific roles. Its teaching includes the study of the function of different organs like respiration, reproduction, digestion, osmoregulation, and a lot more. It is a dynamic study that reveals how different systems in the body function collectively as a single unit that is moved by energy.

Anatomy vs Physiology

The word ‘anatomy’ refers to the ‘structure of body’, while ‘physiology’ refers to ‘function of the body’. In the anatomy of yoga, you will learn about the detailed structure of different parts and organs of the body. Whereas in yoga physiology you will be studying the functions of these body parts and organs in a coordinated way.

These two terms are often studied jointly and are incomplete without each other. One needs to know anatomy before acquiring the knowledge of physiology, conversely, only studying anatomy without understanding physiology is simply worthless.

SUBTALAR JOINT ⠀ [ANATOMY, FUNCTION & BIOMECHANICS] ⠀ Regarding my previous post about myofascial treatment of the „INVERSION TRAUMA“ it is very important to mobilise the subtalar joint if it is restricted. If your patient suffers from an inversion trauma, you will most likely find a restriction in the subtalar joint. ⠀ Don’t look at the ankle only, examine the whole body! ⠀ The subtalar joint isn’t discussed as much when it comes to the ankle. More commonly, the talocrural joint is discussed, as it is involved in plantarflexion and dorsiflexion. ⠀ The subtalar joint is where the talus meets the calcaneus (heel bone) at the hindfoot. The subtalar joint is considered a ‘gliding’ joint, as it displays a combination of translational and rotational movement. The joint allows for inversion and eversion of the foot/ankle complex. This motion can be seen in the pictures 7-9. ⠀ Adequate mobility and control at this joint is important both statically and dynamically: ▪️Statically, it is important to be able to find a ‘neutral’ position. This allows for ideal foot and ankle placement, and a stacking effect through the entire lower body. Efficient use of the foot/arch depends on a well controlled and positioned subtalar joint. ▪️Dynamically, this joint gives the ankle more degrees of freedom. It acts as a buffer to allow for rotational/frontal plane movement when walking over uneven terrain for example. ▪️The combination of movement from the talocrural joint and subtalar joint turn the ankle into an important shock absorbing and movement buffering complex (when they are moving well). This helps disperse movement through the lower chain, making it easier on the knee and foot (upstream and downstream). ⠀ After an inversion trauma (ankle sprain injury) it is very important to assess this joint as well and if required to mobilise it as it can force knee problems or even hip or lower back problems through a so-called ascending kinematic chain! ⠀ #phiotherapy #osteopathy #ankle #foot #rehab #anatomy #movement #mobility #education #yoga #pilates #crossfit #medicine #pain #therapy #sportstherapy #physicaltherapy #manualtherapy #supinationtrauma #inversiontrauma #anklesprain https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl-19nPASmB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"Anatomically, they open the hamstring muscles, which are the group of muscles responsible for much of our daily activities, such as walking, running, and climbing stairs. Energetically, the backs of the legs are where we store our unconscious pattering, the limiting beliefs and false narratives that we acquire from a very young age."

-Deepak Chopra and Sarah Platt-Finger, Living in the Light (2023)

Author’s note: I re-watched Howl’s Moving Castle recently and I loved it! I’d been trying to finish up Grey’s Anatomy, though that’s been a colossal endeavor. I knew it had many seasons but 17 seasons (?) was more than I had imagined. I realized after a while, regardless of how engaging and shocking the writing was, after the third episode of watching in a row, I check out and start checking other social media. I might as well save that episode for later and do something more active (e.g., crocheting, yoga, etc.)!
